thank. you if. the headlines on international u.n. security council adults new sanctions against north korea for the resolution changed from a top u.s. . syrian stolen from the states government with german authorities believing that over eleven thousand of them could now be in the hands of islamic state. the devastating hurricane. businesses in the affected areas face criticism over how this has been.
2:01 am
very welcome to you from all of us here at aunty international in moscow we have your latest world headlines the u.n. security council has adopted new sanctions against north korea the latest resolution now prohibits the purchase of textiles from the country for example it also over strikes the hiring of north koreans us foreign workers plus the document puts a cap on pyongyang's oil imports but this whole of ocean is a big step back from what was originally proposed proposed by the united states in new york our correspondent explains. this is a very different resolution than the draft that was circulated by the united states the original draft of the resolution that the u.s. circulated have actually called for a full oil and natural gas embargo against the d.p. r. k. forbidding north korea from importing any oil or natural gas well the resolution that just passed is far different simply caps the amount of oil and natural gas
2:02 am
that north korea can import now the original draft that was being circulated furthermore called for a freezing of the assets of kim jong un and a travel ban on north korea's leader forbidding him from leaving north korea that was not included in the resolution that just passed now immediately after it was unanimously passed by the fifteen members of the u.n. security council quite a change in tone from u.s. leaders regarding north korea we heard nikki haley speaking before the u.n. security council today and kind of calm tone saying that the north koreans have not passed a point of no return that there are peaceful and diplomatic solutions to the crisis but we've heard some very different words from nikki haley herself as whether as well as other u.s. officials in relation to north korea we are not looking for a war the north korean regime has not yet passed the point of no return if it agrees to stop its nuclear program it can reclaim its future if it proves it can
2:03 am
live in peace the world will live in peace with. its nuclear threats show that he is begging for war massive military response. and overwhelming the shield stands guard. and the sword stands ready. they will be met with fire and we also heard from the representative of the russian federation now the ambassador for the russian federation he talked about how russia's opinion and russia's perspective has been and russia maintains that it is . it's not acceptable for north korea to have nuclear weapons furthermore he went on to emphasize the double freeze proposal put forward by russia and china calling for a freeze in provocative military drills in the south and in exchange for a freeze on nuclear proliferation and provocative activities from the north this is
2:04 am
the ambassador of the russian federation speaking before the u.n. security council group it's a big mistake to underestimate this russian chinese initiative it remains on the table at the security council and we will insist on it being considered now the resolution that was just passed emphasized the call for the six party talks to resume from day one russia and china have called for negotiations and a diplomatic solution to the crisis and an easing of tensions on the korean peninsula and it seems that that view put forward by russia and china from the beginning of this crisis has prevailed with the resolution being passed by the fifteen member body the u.n. security council. we discussed the significance of the latest north korea resolution with a number of analysts i think that they wanted some action to be taken and they knew that china and i believe also russia would not go along with what the draft was it was really recipe for extinction for north korea korea has also
2:05 am
said that if there's a peace treaty signed between then them and the united states and there's a halt to those maneuvers that they would suspend nuclear and missile tests by the united states has brush this off as absolutely unthinkable and so i think that's the real reason that we have an ongoing crisis so you know what you have here is basically nikki haley having initially distributed the most extreme abstentions. perhaps even historically this latest round of sanctions which was supposed to be extremely hard hitting but instead the last did the influence of both russia and china and pushing for diplomacy actually signals a possibility and even though things have gotten about as grim as they possibly could with regard to u.s. policy toward north korea there is a rational pathway at hand. following the adoption of the resolution russia and
2:06 am
china reiterated the cole for a double freeze plan on north korea i mentioned earlier by our correspondent under the plan pyongyang would stop its nuclear and ballistic missile tests in return america and south korea would stop the joint military exercises ahead of the vote the north korean leader warned that washington would pay a price if it's tough a draft resolution was passed correspondent on a program called reports from seoul. considering this sanctions resolution passed by the u.n. security council is the toughest to date concerning north korea's ballistic missile and a nuclear weapons program and is furious before the vote even took place the government issued a very harsh statement warning they will act tough on the quote u.s. gangsters and promised pain and suffering. the calming measures to be taken by the
2:07 am
d.p. ok recalls the u.s. the greatest pain and suffering it's has through its entire history. despite much talk out of seoul underscoring their commitment to a diplomatic solution this week it was announced by office along makers they will include requests for u.s. tactical nukes in their twenty eight budget proposal however they say while they would like more sanctions any additional actions taken against pyongyang will need to include russia and china. i refer to the need for tighter sanctions and belief in the china and russia are sticking to the same position but what concrete measures need to be taken we must discuss together. this week a delegation of opposition lawmakers from seoul will head to washington where they will likely make this request for tactical nuclear weapons china is on the record saying such an act would be a red line. against the presence of nuclear weapons on the korean peninsula so if
2:08 am
such an action is to be carried out by the trump administration it would surely only inflame tensions further in seoul on your part until. a huge trove of blank syrian passports has been stolen from the government. fold into the hands of islamic state. terrorists. to europe. picks up the story. eleven thousand blank syrian passports could be in the hands of isis stops according to an investigation that was carried out by the build on sunday newspaper citing documents from the german police and from the german interior ministry once filled in with a person's details these passports codes allow terrorists to and to europe undetected using a valid passport disguising themselves as refugees developments in connection with
2:09 am
the refugee situation has shown that terrorist organizations they using the opportunity to smuggle potential attackers all supporters into europe in germany undetected fake or altered passports are mostly used for illegal entry without further motives like carrying out a terrorist attack this is more news that should to worry germans after demerged earlier this month that a group of sixty four members of a group linked to al qaeda may have traveled disguising themselves as refugees another group are accused of war crimes and carrying out numerous massacres we've also seen an uptick in the number of those accused of having being fighters with terror organizations facing trial here in germany one of those is the rebel commander able to him if he's accused of having tortured people in syria he entered the country as a refugee at the end of this month prosecutors from stuttgart will bring charges of
2:10 am
murder and belonging to a terrorist organization against four syrian nationals accused of being members of joe but. we contacted the german authorities and asked them what they have to say about the potential risks of terrorists arriving here in germany using refugees as cover is long be known but so-called blank post balls was stolen from the syrian regime these documents the listed on the interpol lost documents database so that the possibles can be matched with passports presented on a right. not quite bland say after two two blank passports potentially being in the hands of isis isn't going down well with some the problem itself is far bigger than we actually realize and that the the mainstream media is able to it's a broadcast and bring to the attention of you know the citizens of the world the countries did of ill thought out these policies on immigration and the slack border controls that we've seen in european countries i think the results of that is
2:11 am
really want to fight well i don't think they have any idea of the sheer magnitude of these threats and this problem a lot more needs to be done and if it isn't done we're going to see significant terrorist incidents the sheer number of terrorist incidents we witnessed over the last three years that are linked to isis in european countries shows that even with a small number of terrorists that are off the radar the governments don't have the ability to cope so if we're looking at such a high number you know in the thousands and i think they're definitely going to be struggling to it to cope and woefully incapable of doing such german authorities uncovered a half thousand cases of people trying to enter the country using false documents and twenty sixteen and the news that isis may have access to over eleven thousand blank syrian passports means that migration authorities are going to have to be on watch to make sure the documents handed over at the border much the real identity
2:12 am
of those doing the handing over peter all over berlin and while i sold fighters are trying to make it into europe thousands have previously gone to fight for the terror group in syria from abroad you can see right here the lion's share of foreign i still recruits came from tunisia russia france germany and the u.k. are also among the countries from where a significant number of citizens left to fight what i saw. many of those who went to syria and iraq to fight for islamic state brought their families with that but with the terror group suffering a string of major defeats the why children of a large number of killed has wound up in refugee camps with uncertain futures he was forced to talk to some of the widows of foreign extremists and iraq where hundreds of families are stranded location and identities will not be disclosed. but says china. is such
2:13 am
a dumb was it is. the legal fate of the wives of beisel fighters is not yet clear meanwhile in europe last year around six hundred people were put on trial for terrorism with more than three hundred fifty prosecuted for ties to jihadism should the wives of beisel fighters be treated in the same way as other islamist extremists but we discussed the issue with political commentators. and mo one saw. well i think the most important thing we have to do is avoid these people coming back to our countries these people have joined a terrorist organization they wish to join
2:14 am
a state that isn't the united kingdom isn't america isn't russia isn't even chechnya these are people who are dangerous extremist terrorists and what i hope will happen and i sincerely think that all of our country should support syria and iraq ensuring these people are prosecuted or brought to justice what we're talking about wives and children of isis fighters who have gone out to syria to iraq to kurdistan and have been found themselves inadvertently getting in broiled as part of as much a victim as anyone else has been in power these atrocities certainly the wives and children innocent victims in this play these are families children mothers who are claiming that we came here innocently we came here we followed the husbands they have been killed in combat and we are left stranded here with nowhere to go and they are close no risk to the state it's let's be clear what the argument that no one saw is making is that you are an adult woman have chosen to join
2:15 am
a terrorist organization and just because you're married you should have no responsibility for that whatsoever i want mr savage journey to terrorist organizations but i want to not have you make your own piece of the segway sign don't fly and besides so let's be clear on my position let's be clear what i look at you're surely you don't make your name for yourself as a showing for the majority of iraq just take the air piece out and keep talking the position of the majority of british people in my view is that they do not want terrorists back in the united kingdom they do not want the wives of terrorists back in the united kingdom but there may want the children who are entirely innocent to return to the united kingdom and with that in mind i put my ear piece back in these women many of them will be innocent people the children are innocent people they didn't sign up to a terrorist organization it's not like joy. a club where you sign up to get a membership form they followed their husbands into walls aren't people who have not committed any wrongdoing who are no risk to the state the onset is to integrate
2:16 am
them we have the national security apparatus in place to be able to tackle these issues right now we have got very successful models around britain we've got very successful models around europe it was done kathleen but the answer is not just to exclude everybody all we do is create more problems for the future so the only days we need to bring these people back then show them some love show them some tolerance absolute they'll be armed no doubt and interrogated by the intelligence services find out what they know but the idea is not imprison them not leave them stateless and not leave them stranded if we bring them home i said joining us so far for your choose their news here on oxy international so would it be a big surprise that facebook has been slapped with a million euro fine for violating views was previously explained the number. one else truths seem wrong. why don't we just don't call. me.

facebook has been fined one point two million euros for breaking privacy rules a spanish data protection agency accused the company of users personal data without their consent facebook denies the accusation claiming that their users decide what information they. also stressed it doesn't use postal data to target advertisements people in madrid what they thought about facebook's approach to prophesy. yes there are. all the. companies that we all know about i suppose you have a choice they decide to pull through on. illegals and they can do these i think i one day use my personal information people don't
2:19 am
know about it should be allowed should be given a choice. you can. just do it without that. there is clearly been a been a breach. and hopefully the courts will will stand by that. but there have been many cases where big multinational corporations have gone away with . variety of different things from not paying enough corporate tax to issues around privacy and data hope that the this is will stand and facebook will have to pay following may seem big money but if you compare it to the amount of revenue that facebook make when advertising one of revenue they make on all data it's pittance in comparison to what they make the issue really is that these companies make so much money that a small fine here or there really doesn't make a difference and i think governments need to do more to protect our data from multinationals that are making you know billions off of it. we can to
